We had a perfect week at The Granary. The cottage was immaculately clean, beds were comfy & there was an abundance of hot water. The views from the lounge are stunning but sadly we didn’t manage to spot any red deer on the hills. As hikers the location suited us as there were lots of beautiful walks from the door. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel welcome with fresh eggs, milk & cake left out for us. Thank you Annette! Minehead, Dunster Castle, Dunkery Hill & Tarr Steps are only a short drive away so there is plenty to do in the area. There are a lot of single track roads to The Granary but there are also lots of passing places & other drivers were really courteous & friendly so it wasn’t a problem & I am not used to driving along single track lanes! The Royal Oak in Luxborough is definitely worth visiting & can be accessed on foot across farmland without touching roads giving you time to walk off the delicious meal!

Spotlessly clean, and has everything you'll need for a comfortable stay (welcoming pieces of cake on our arrival were lovely). Located in a beautiful, very quiet and rural area. Quality of the roads is good, however some of them are quite narrow so just drive carefully and not too fast (lots of pheasants may appear suddenly in front of your car). There are lots of walks around the cottage, and if you'll drive a little bit further (short drive) you'll find even more, including sea paths, paths around Wimbleball lake, etc - so the location of this cottage is a perfect point to explore Exmoor. The Royal Oak in Luxborough is just a mile away and serves very tasty food - we didn't book in advance. We loved our stay here and would definitely recommend this cottage.

  Tucked away from the road and any other manmade noise (apart from the very occasional tractor) and light, we loved the natural peace and quiet (and dark skies) here.

Tucked away from the road and any other manmade noise (apart from the very occasional tractor) and light, we loved the natural peace and quiet (and dark skies) here. The kitchen is fantastically (and expensively - Bosch everything) well-equipped and the welcome-gifts of eggs from the nearby hens and excellent fruit cake were a nice touch. The rooms are very comfortable and similarly well-equipped. Great walking is right on the doorstep and some of Somerset's and Exmoor's towns, beaches and other attractions just a short drive away. The village pub is 4 minutes by car or a 20 minute walk better done in the daytime and under new ownership serving excellent food ... the subject of another review. Best of all was the nightly aerobatic display by bats at dusk - just amazing! We loved our stay here.

Great location - tucked away from the usual honeypot destinations but only a short drive from them if that's what you want. Luxborough is well positioned in the peaceful farmland nestling between Exmoor and the Quantock hills. Great walking from the front door - Dunster, Timberscombe and Roadwater are all within easy reach and Exmoor itself (e.g. Dunkery Hill) can also be made if you want a longer expedition. The cottage is very pleasant to stay in and very well equipped so no need to be going out for meals all the time. A very good place to be if the weather isn't encouraging outdoor activities. Horse owner-riders may be particularly interested to stay here as there are stables and paddocks on the farm but obviously this would be by separate arrangement with the owner.

Although the location is remote, we loved the walk to the local pub and peaceful setting and Annette provided easy instructions to find the place and check-in. The Granary had everything we needed for a comfortable stay - including a well equipped kitchen - and could easily accommodate two couples with the two en-suite bedrooms. There is also a nice outdoor area for drinks and BBQ’ing. Annette went above and beyond accommodating our family including stair gates, highchair and travel cot. There is plenty to do in the area, we did a few local forest walks and spent a day at Lynmouth exploring the beautiful coastline.
